Brandon Webb hasn't pitched in the majors since 2009, but the former National League Cy Young winner is hoping to make a comeback this season.

The Colorado Rockies are one of the teams interested in Webb, according to the Denver Post, which reports the righthander will soon set a date to throw for interested teams.

The Texas Rangers gave Webb a $3 million, one-year contract before the 2011 season with hopes he might be able to join the rotation by midseason. But his comeback was stalled after four minor league starts when he had to have rotator cuff surgery for a second time.

The 33-year-old Webb last pitched in the majors in the 2009 season opener for Arizona. He had pitched more than 200 innings in five consecutive seasons for the Diamondbacks before then.

The three-time All-Star has a lifetime record of 87-62 with a 3.27 ERA and 1,085 strikeouts. He won the NL Cy Young in 2006, when he led the league in wins with 16. He finished second in Cy Young balloting the following two seasons.
